Lyrics:
"Don't let it go your head, no!"
Everybody love a star, when he on top
"Don't don't let it go your head, no!"
Nobody comes around when the star start to drop
"Don't let it go your head, no!"
Strive to help others who help themselves
"Don't let it go your head, no no no no no!"
Knowledge of self, and good health and wealth
This song is so relevant today, especially for new artists 💯
Here for it sis 🙋🏽♀️
"1 single....don't make you a hit"
best music is full of meanings, messages, soul and creativity.
and rarely it becomes mainstream.
thank ALLAH for that. 'cause of that
traxxs like this become timeless.
Mann Absolutely 💯 🙌🏽🙌🏽
💯
"Strive to help those that help themselves."
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I don't care what nobody says.. These guys were dope!!
Big Facts!
Shut up kid of course they were dope🤷🏿♂️
Lol I'm far from being a kid. I will be 40 in less than 3 years.. But ok 😅😅😆
Dope as heaven
@@goddessteetee4987 they're underrated
Who's here in 2024?

CLASSIC
💯
Classic. I wish music today was like this.
T Mac just keep the good music like this in rotation... we don't need the new.
I will
There is hood music out go research for it
Grand Puba's verse was incredible, flawlesss
Say WORD!!
Really was..
This is still so relevant even in 2019!!
Arich67 true
That dude Page Kennedy from Hip-Hop DX need to listen to this track.
Definition of a classic
absolutely
Being humble pays
Dammn...they spoke to my life. My life situations.
My Uncle killed this sound.. Lord Jamar
Kush Gosier fire 🔥
my brother use to hang out with lord jamar
lord jamar was a great closure for this song
when rappers were truly competing to be the best lyrically. I miss these days! Mercy!
Listen to hip hop god's on the internet Chuck D radio station it's still out there
This one of them tracks you gotta bump solo...cause da homies just don't get it🤦🏾♂️
Word I’m bumping this RIGHT NOW but my boy don’t get it
This guy gets it
Get new homies
@ATHEIST You really need instructions on how to go link with likeminded people???
@ATHEIST DWL🤦🏿♂️hombre. If you have issues on leaving your mom's basement and talking to people in real life that's on you. It's not hard staying away from people who aren't into what you are. It's also not hard going out, let's say to a store since that's how you equate meeting new people(although there are laws against actually buying people), and MEETING other humans to converse in real life seeing if you have things in common. In real life.... and not just peacocking in RUclips comments. How's that for comprehension?
when will hip hop be like this again????
Stefanie Reed never sorry to say
Too many morons in this generation so no never
Do research there is great music out .
'cause one single don't make you a hit - stay true to who you are and don't never forget...
Yessss one single dont make u a hit
Wow..this is probably the DOPEST verse I ever heard from LORD. Sadat though..he dont even have to be RHYMING And he STILL be BUSSIN'. Puma BODIED it though
titanaup 4shO Nuffffffffff
don't try to be what you are not., learn to love yourself.
Robin Smith yesssssss always
L
Almost a million views...Come on people support REAL HIP HOP
+ThugNinja91 I don't expect this to get the millions of views that other vids get. This music makes sense, you can understand what they are singing, its positive and uplifting . Unfortunately the masses don't appreciate that kind of MUSIC anymore
+westernstar4964 I honestly believe it will
It's got a Million views now. Deserves more though
Todd P Then just do a little you could do, share with your homies to come view too.

Lord Jamar of Brand Nubian told how they wrote their best songs, it's all in the books he was involved in making, *HOW TO RAP* and the follow-up, *HOW TO RAP 2*.
This is one of his quotes inside them:
''Hip-hop is one of the most influential genres in the world,
and we’re selling all kinds of merchandise for people with
hip-hop when we can be selling ideas to help change things
for the better in the world - using this genre for what it
could be really for: to make change."
True
It’s weird seeing Lord Jamar outside of a Vlad interview 😂😂😂😂
This is Lord Jamar in 1998 before VladTV's platform even existed.This the same guy that discovered dead prez and got them signed to Loud Records in 1997.
Drinking that stay young elixir as well
Even weirder to see him not talking about EminEm
how old are you bro?
@@rasungod7257 nobody knows who that bum is
When hip hop was dope.
Truth music. Because look at what happened. Goodness I miss real music.
Ridiculous still almost 30 years later!!! Wow in tears literally just going back to these old tracks.
everybody love a star when he on top.....smh so true
stevo w the truth cause when that star drop aint nobody around
I remember my dad used to bump this CD back n tha day 💯💯💯💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
This is something why hip hop has heart beat without this an others there wouldn't be no hip hop
😭😭😭😭😭 I miss this hip hop! What happened 2 us?! 🤔

Jamar:
One Single Don’t Make You A Hit.
Marshall:
10 Albums is it OK?
😂😂😂
shawty eat'em up it’s a joke bro ✌️
I'd still rather hear their shit then Em's.
@@REAL6 i rather listen to em then all brand nubia songs .
@@Hitman-sn2by That's a headache waiting to happen then
@@REAL6 em would body there whole rap group on the mic
Grand Puba was huge for my generation.
one of the hottest cuts of the 90's... so dope !!
They need to re release this right now
Classic record
Grand Puba flows was so effortless and crazy 🔥
Some will never know. Its dying breed music like this.
Brand Nubian All For One was the first hip hop CD I ever bought. I still have the same copy all these years later.
This group need to be here nowadays yo. Peace to the Brand Nubian crew and this channel
THIS WAS THE JAM, BACK IN THE GOOD OLE' DAYZ !!!!
lol...damn...if this came out in 98 or 99 u would've thought they was dissing sisco
Real throw bk. Music it brought everybody on tha dance floor,,,👀
I’m young as hell but real knows real.. 24 in 2022 bumping a classic.
My favorite artist in this group is grand puba
I had his tape 2000 n someone stole it out my tape deck I use to bump this song all the time till it got ate up in my walkman thanks for updating this video
Puba and Sadat my fav mcs from Brand Nubian
I'm here from just seeing this on Yo!! Hip Hop Mix on MTV Classics. Within an hour they played Brand Nubian, Lords Of The Underground and ATCQ. It brought me back to good times in middle school and junior high.
Omgggg I’ve been trying to find this song… yayyyyy
Still 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Taylor Swift has over 10 Billion views, but we got less than 1 Milliion here? If RUclips started in 1990 I wonder if Hip-Hop tracks would have as many views?
If we had RUclips back then...., I believe the generation behind us would have never gotten off track! "Yo! MTV RAPS, Teen Summit, etc, disappeared for a reason. You can buy a DVD set of almost any show that's ever been on television, except these. The fact that many of today's youth don't even know this type of Hip-Hop exist...is all by design.
I can’t wait for this kind of rap to come back.
There’s good rap go search for it
Best group in the World with the Wu-Tang and The Roots and a Tribe Called Quest 😉👍!
Needed this today...the nostalgia
Classic 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🔥
Still sounds good even in 20 70 😂😂😂
Classic
This is a classic. I think everybody who is a star or wanna star should listen to this. U know cause so many celebrities out whether they are artist, athletes, TV and movie stars think they are all that just because they have one hit song, album, TV show or movie they are next big thing and caught up in the fame and fortune of it all. They’ll have the money, cars, houses, trips, women, people pretending to be your friends and etc. But when it comes crashing down and lose everything they soon realize that all those people who were around them didn’t give a fuck about them and only was around when they had money. That’s what sad cause it still goes on today. That’s why there so many one hit wonders in both the entertainment industry. Having one hit record, show or film is lucky but have it another and more after that not so much. If they do have more hits then they should be humble and learn humility because u a superstar can be here today and gone tomorrow. People will be wondering whatever happen to him, her or them. Why have they fell off and where are they now?
Grand Puba! Vicious on the bars...
I REALLY MISS HIP HOPPPPPPPPPP! PEACE
My favorite Brand Nubian song. No Diggity!
No One:
RUclips: Let's play the weakest link and the group
here goes the M&M stans LOL
@@GantzIsSloppy lol you mean fact checkers? A stan would just hear em say it and believe it. Dont be mad cuz its true lol.
Not, got, clot, rot what a rhyme scheme lol. Lord lame stricks again.
@@christianleprettre9230 nah, *Stans* go out of their way to troll a person cuz M&M dissed them
GantzIsSloppy it’s not trolling if it’s a fact. Some of the shit he said doesn’t even rhyme or sounds good . Not just the weakest link , he’s dragging the group.
CLASSIC! Sadat X reminds me of Abdul Ra'off of S.O.S. Band.
Eminem can't rap like this.
@LFC1892 no he isnt...
@LFC1892the inner city doesnt bump that goofy ass eminem. Rapping about killing his moms and ex GF smh. Dissing britney spears and nsync
I’m on a winning streak in the casino, and this comes on my playlist,
This was my song use to play this all the time makes me think about the 90's
Love the message mnm is wack
Yea this was a bop back in the day #90sKid🤘🏾
I remember when this first came out I actually bought the single on a record👍🇹🇹🇺🇸
Straight Flames rate here !!! "Nobody comes comes when the stars start to drop" True Story
Peace to the Gods
I remember listening to this when I was in high school abt to graduate
Gracias por su musica respeto!!..
2022to late 💙💙💪💪💪
2021 Giving grand blessings ! Lyrics contain bars on bars. Celebrate the pioneers now! Send the Flowers now! (Harlem is listening 🎧)

Who said lord Jamar didn’t have bars
nobody with any relevance
Of course he had bats but not in this track.
Umm, a lot of people, and justifiably so lmao. Where were his bars in this song? Basic ass ABC bars. Give me *ONE* good bar from him in this song, go ahead, I’ll wait. LOL, so trash
• Balance • He’s got the fan blowing in his hair and all, smh.
God Worden Top tier bar right there
The only song I liked from Brand Nubian their best in my opinion.
Guys could flow better than anyone then and now
And you know it ♥️ they are for real tho ❤️
I 'm right here!
The world didn’t start in 60’s 70’s 80, 90… live ur life and don’t worry bout yesterday today or tomorrow. People will continue to live and die
Damn...Grand Puba murdered this shit! Back when hip hop had a concrete message! #shoutouttobrandnubian.
blazinghot99 so underrated one of the best his flow was amazing
Actually when this song came out people were still complaining that hip hop was dead.
Yes he did
Boo, i know like a boxer positive love 💕💕💕💕💕
They all did
When I think about the direction music has gone I get teary eyed. I'm just glad I grew up in the days when rappers had something to offer. This music today has our children lost.
Completely
How about people do research there are artist out there still doing decent music.
Amen.
😢😢😢😢
This shit today ain’t music it’s a play in the ignorance of black peoples by those in control. They purpose is to use black boys and girls to influence our children to be self destructive because they know we are the most easily influenced folk on the earth. If we see it on TV then it must be right especially if we who are the poorest gets paid for it. Real life keep them divided so we can conquer. The crazy thing is we gone spend the next 50 years in complete stupidity and ignorance trying to defend and ignorant ass nigga like a Gucci mane and all slow tongue dragging ass REAL niggas that the record companies can pay to do the record companies job. Hey go out their talk that nigga shit to the young. We’ll give you a Bentley and what else. Real shit by the Nubians and grand master flash was real and they had to stop it. In the white Boyd mind they using the radio to influence young black kids in the way of destruction. We not trying to uplift and enlighten you niggas
SHOUT OUT TO JEAN CARNE,THE LADY WHO BROUGHT OUT THE ORIGINAL SONG,DON'T LET IT GO TO YOUR HEAD,WAY BACK IN 1978,THE YEAR I TURNED 15.AND SHE STILL LIVING AS OF 08-18-2021 AT AGE 74.HEY JEAN BABY!!
👍
Love this but love jean much, much more!!!
❤❤
A time when hip hop had a message
When Hip Hop gave brothers and sisters sound advice.
WORRRRRD!
TheDopestEthiopian1 we following suit give us a minute the paradigm shift is coming
Brothers and sisters 2day don't won't advice
this is real talk , like the kids say in 2018
You need advise all good
No profanity and still a banger decades later = real music #facts
100 percent facts. The lyrics we had back in the day were so much more meaningful than the shit they put out now.
Fa Sho
I love my kind. True leaders! Knowing that the young ones are listening and watching.
@@RobizGaming2024 lmaook y’all clearly never heard “punks jump up to get beat down” maybe look into the hateful homophobic shit these guys pushed in the 90s before saying how much more meaningful and less profane they are then modern hip hop. Y’all are just fake hip hop heads, want to hear an album that came out THIS YEAR with “meaningful lyrics”? Listen to the newest SADAT X ALBUM. Ever heard of him? Yeah I thought so, that’s weird it’s almost as if he doesn’t even agree with your own fake hip hop head takes, Bc he actually works with people in the modern underground, Bc he actually cares about hip hop. He cares about its evolution and growth, y’all literally like one tiny period Bc you have nostalgia for it. I’m in my 20s and love this album, I love all the classics from this time but I also love countless modern hip hop albums Bc I actually care about the genre. Y’all have to lie and pretend these old legends share your mindset when they don’t lmao they work with modern people and you would know that if you even actually cared about THEM. But you can’t even take the time to keep up with these people you use 😂 it’s so obvious y’all are just the modern pop rap fans but from the 90s, you were into music a couple years when you were a teenager and then grew out of it and didn’t care enough to actually keep up and be versed in the different sub genres. So now you’re one of these losers who goes on every video older then 20 years old saying how much better it is then now it’s embarrassing. Go actually try to find good modern hip hop it isn’t hard, that’s how I made a top FIFTY hip hop albums of this year and like two of them were “trap” or whatever y’all think modern hip hop is. And again if you’re gonna just choose to stay ignorant and go “no all those 50 albums are bad” again you just said Sadat X album is bad. You’re saying Cormega album is bad, as well as Nas, Rockness from Heltah Skeltah, Diamond D, AZ, RZA, DJ Scratch, Phife, Black Thought……..but please go on about what a “90s hip hop head” y’all are even though you just said all the artists I named make bad music

i agree strongly
Exactly! They nothing about good music especially good hiphop. That stuff out here today is straight garbage and they are out here killing each other. The dumbest shit I ever seen in my life.
When you look at Brand Nubian, you'll get the idea that record sales ain't the real thing man. Aging of the music is what matters, still bump these legendary tracks.
Hip Hop was never intended for record sales or pop chat songs
@@cperkins5050 thats why we don't hear it on the radio now. Lyrics lose to catchy beats, unfortunately.
It's the ones that we cannot name that took advantage of the peoples music and made it profitable (for them).
Klazzick.
They broke up because of money solo 360 grand puba etc !
So many jewels dropped on this track
Many

All three verses are GEMS!!!!!

Sometimes you wild, but I guess that's your style! Real bars.
@Olivia Rodrigues- Favorite line
Puba, Sadat and Jamar - the memories that ride on all these legendary golden age rapppers. I wish I could go back - such a simpler time it seems these days. Struggles felt different back then I feel like. Cheers to the 90s.
We are all taking the opportunity in 2024 to start independent again, this time stay independent and record real music in real studios and manufacture real CDs, Tapes, Vinyls and sell straight to real radio and real radio stations right here in America! Cheers to today and the greatness of what is on the way!
OK 🎤
These are 3 of the giants shoulders that these rappers of today stand on.
They don't make music like this anymore, this was hiphop at its finest.
This one is still relevent for these kids
Who get one hit and think they the next big thing..
There are a couple of artists ( e.g. Joey Badass and J. Cole) who still do. It's just not as popular as the crap they call rap nowadays.
True 2021 after next up JOE. 😆great vibes Unity -2 day. 46 th Rap is older then some of us.
Straight Fire Ese.........
*If you miss that old school sound then ✔ out my tracks...I specialize in making 90s-era hip hop...!!!👍🏾🎤🎧📀🎶💣🔥*
Grand Puba was so underrateed as a solo act.
Wanted to like his solo work but it was shallow and one dimensional. All punchlines. I think the group brought out the best of him.
Facts...91-92 was all Puba! I went and got my Hilfiger cuz of Puba he had the streets
@@bobbyf1741 you nailed it bro. And there was such anticipation when he went solo too that he couldn't quite live up to the hype for the reasons you mentioned... Plus his production was seriously lacking as well which didn't help
Facts... that 360 album was fire and still is
@@DHill-qk7hq that album actually kind of sucked
Pray for the generation denied Positive music
Hip-Hop & rap is struggling hard in these times...its barely lasting
Just keep playing and promoting the good music from 70s to 90s. There's also good music out there now But you have to do some digging. The majority of good artists today aren't signing with major labels. They self release or put out their stuff on small independent labels
It’s so saturated and has no substance. The men wanna be women and the women wanna be hard and thugs smh 🤦🏾♀️
@@Avenue77There's literally more positive and conscious rap music now than there ever has been. Literally 120,000 songs get dropped on Spotify weekly. You should just dig around. Unfortunately over saturation of music can make it harder to find stuff.
💯
I cry listening to this. My childhood was great. My parents would play songs like this and we would dance and rap or be driving around having a good time. Simple times for me but I understand how hard they were for them. Appreciate your parents for everything they do guys, and the joy we brought each other.
A Mouth Full 💯💯 Lord knows that they really need to play this song today!! This generation will never understand the message of the song!
I’m glad you were exposed to this the nowaday we have to fight to be who we truly are….most people are moved materialisticly and forget…where they come from
Awesome comment 💯
Yeah you RITE ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
LOL 😂😆😂 I to well about these days my 3 sons would sing and rap with my wife while we played these songs driving around the city or you know " Road Trips". 🎈👏🤎🖤🤎👍👊👍💪💪👊🙏
This generation will never understand how DOPE the 90's were. ✌🏾😎
They just know rappers that have beats that sound all the exact same with fake hi-hats doing sixtuplets at the end of each measure and lyrics so shallow, it's almost the daring to be super basic (because they have nothing else) that appeals to these kids.
They will never know
Facts
Champagne Hec Painfully true
It's a good thing I was there to know the real.🔥
This is timeless...the message in this song is so relevant
Iou
Always Will Be!!!!
This song is nothing but the true 😊💜💜💜
Was dat sisco in dis video
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯I love it
Hey kids, Jamar use to have dreads and wasn’t always doing Vlad interviews
Omg your comment blew my mind jamar actually used to rap I didn't even know it was him from rapper to the couch geez life's tough
He still weak as hell
@My penis is unbelievably small but You trash. You ain't even got a record deal. You don't know anything about true Hip Hop.
Brand Nubian is classic, every memeber is a living legend
All 3 of these brothers are NYC street legends of their era. They dominated inner city airways for a grip. Doesn't matter if someone else is better, it takes nothing away from anyone else's value.
Sadat X had that unique voice that made all his rhymes sounds so fire.
Thats the truth
Elvin German Santiago -Agreed.....you almost don’t notice that he was barely rhyming his words. 😂
Sadat that first cat i remember back in the 90's that didnt even try to rhyme every bar. Some bars rhymed, some just didnt, sometimes he would wait 3 or 4 bars to connect a rhyme that links back to the first bar.
Isc23I - Some people still do what you said in the last part of your comment from time to time. You just can’t wait too long to connect the two rhyming words or it’ll sound crazy.
Elvin German Santiago Hell yea 😁😁
I played this at my 40th birthday last year and everybody got up.
Classic
Dope still.
Many more HAPPY BIRTHDAYS TO YOU💪
That first verse 🔥
Lord jamar was my favorite laid back, but delivery was on point. .
@@carlosedwards1590 Yeah I love Lord Jamar’s verse too
Grand Puba I felt was down and earth and legendary! Lord Jamar was laid back but truth! Sadat X’s was talking about relationships with a girl that want material shit but let her know it’s not always about that 💯
puba killed it..🔥🔥🔥
@@Rjack5150 Word.
Even as a 23 year old I can say that these new artists today and learn a little something from older hip hop artists.
Missy G Agree im 14 music gettin little whack now
Tristan Darland agrees, im 6 but old rap is much better.
I know it has good message an aint bout drugs an women all the time
Tristan Darland soap on a rope, sorry for misbehaving papi
Refreshing that a young person can appreciate the ole school hip hop compared to what's out today!
